Hello, and welcome back for season 2 of Diaries of a Lady Gardener!


If you think gardening is cool and would rather take a trip to the garden centre than go out out, then you’ve found the right podcast. But also, you’re not in the minority. 


Research from Draper Tools has revealed that over 80% of young people officially think gardening is cool, mainly because of its benefits for mental health and the environment. 


Draper Tools are sponsors of the Diaries of a Lady Gardener podcast, so why not join me in following them on Instagram, “at Draper underscore tools”?


In this episode I got the pleasure of chatting to Andy from Urban Herbs about how the business grew to where it is today from a non-traditional beginning. It was fascinating to get an insight into what goes on behind the scenes, and if you’ve ever thought about a career in the horticultural industry, I hope that you’ll find this inspiring and eye-opening. So before I give too much away, let’s get into it!


I absolutely loved chatting with Andy and came away with so many notes on different herbs and ideas, but most importantly, a a real sense of pride for the gardening community on Instagram - it’s just amazing and if you’re new, welcome to the squad! Don’t forget to check Urban Herbs out on instagram @urban_herbs_ where you can learn so much about the magical varieties of herbs that you don’t typically see and I can’t wait to see what spring 2022 brings!
